I think Franco did a great job in Rise of the Planet of the Apes. I didn't care much for that movie, but after I saw it, my view changed completely. Is one of the best movies I saw that year, and Franco certainly helped.

Every once in a long while you'll end up with a bad movie, that has a great performance in it. It always makes for an odd experience.

That's Gary Oldman in "Leon" (or "The Professional") for me. Great performance, not so great film. Unpopular, I think. Good

Also on an unrelated note, I thought Franco was great in "Pineapple Express", right up there with any thing Cheech and Chong have ever done. Not that easy to portray stoned on screen, many have tried and many have failed.

I disagree, The Master is a great film. The cinematography is incredible, the score is engrossing, and the way in which its written is the most innovative and brilliant writing work I've seen in a film in aquite a while.

@ Cconn. That's cool. I loved the score, the cinematography and the acting as well (especially PSH, a true "Master"), but I was also bored and to me that is the Capital Sin as far as movies go.
But to each their own and I dig your cinephic (if that's a word) enthusiasm
